Is the wording correct?

Tracker(Common)
3
Artifact Creature — Construct Assassin
2/2
Landfall — Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, Tracker gets +1/+1 and gains each landwalk of that land's types until end of turn. (It can't be blocked as long as defending player controls a land of that type.)

This doesn't work - you specifically need to call out the land's land type, or else you start granting Urza'swalk, artifactwalk, and dryadwalk. Which... aren't things that exist, to my knowledge.

I'm going to point to Excavator's oracle text for the proper wording - 'gains landwalk of each of the land types of that land until end of turn' would be my suggestion.

Of the 3 example you made the only correct one is Urza'swalk (and I think that could work). Artifactwalk is not correct because Artifact is a card type not a land (sub)type, while Dryadwalk is a creature (sub)type not a land (Dryad Arbor typeline work as two halves Land - Forest and Creature - Dryad, Dryad is not a land type and Forest not a creature type)

Excavator says:
Tap, Sacrifice a basic land: Target creature gains landwalk of each of the land types of the sacrificed land until end of turn.

So go with "Tracker gets +1/+1 and gains landwalk of each of the land types of that land until end of turn."
