  * @description
- * The `ngInit` directive specifies initialization tasks to be executed
- *  before the template enters execution mode during bootstrap.
+ * The `ngInit` directive allows you to evaluate an expression in the
+ * current scope.
+ *
+ * <div class="alert alert-error">
+ * The only appropriate use of `ngInit` for aliasing special properties of
+ * {@link api/ng.directive:ngRepeat `ngRepeat`}, as seen in the demo bellow. Besides this case, you
+ * should use {@link guide/dev_guide.mvc.understanding_controller controllers} rather than `ngInit`
+ * to initialize values on a scope.
+ * </div>

  * @element ANY
  * @param {expression} ngInit {@link guide/expression Expression} to eval.
