Previous discussions of the bases and projection operators for projective representations are analyzed and alternatives are proposed. Detailed proofs are provided for a result which is often assumed or proved within unacceptable limitations, namely that the form of the projection operators which is standard for vector representations is also valid for unitary projective representations. These proofs provide necessary conditions for this result, and they are constructed in terms of the definition given for the bases of projective representations. The calculation of Clebsch-Gordan coefficients for projective representations by means of the projection operators is discussed. Whereas in the method of Dirl the work is carried out entirely in terms of the matrix representations, and the symmetrization of the bases has to be considered in a second step, all the work of this paper is conducted starting from the symmetrization of the bases of the projective representations, so that those two steps are carried out simultaneously.
