2/1/2007	Urborg is not a Swamp while it's not on the battlefield.
2/1/2007	While it is on the battlefield, Urborg is a Swamp and thus has the ability "{T}: Add {B} to your mana pool."
2/1/2007	If Urborg loses its abilities (for example, it becomes a creature and then Ovinize is cast on it), all lands on the battlefield, including Urborg, will still be Swamps, but Urborg won't have the ability "Each land is a Swamp in addition to its other land types." Urborg also won't be able to tap to produce {B}, but other lands (including those that enter the battlefield later in the turn) will. The way continuous effects work, Urborg's type-changing ability is applied before Ovinize removes both the type-changing ability and its own mana ability.
2/1/2007	This is not the same card as the Legendary Land Urborg from the Legends set. Both of them can be on the battlefield at the same time.
4/1/2008	If Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth and either Blood Moon or Magus of the Moon are on the battlefield, all nonbasic lands will be Mountains, not Swamps. Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth will be a Mountain as well. It will have "{T}: Add {R} to your mana pool" and no other abilities.
